Terrible. We went there for a field trip, and not to mention it was HOT in there.. But anyway we sit down to see a old woman (Mama Blue??) Ask a kid if they were a girl or boy. That embarrassed him, and then started saying we were not good enough to be a football player, game creator, coder or anything.. Then she forced us to do a play about pirates or something and got mad if we forgot our lines, because we learned them for 5 minutes. She also had a time out corner with badly knitten quilts, and made us make bag puppets with no color. She also said we wouldnt pass Drivers Ed (?????) And called us babies. This woman looked about 80. We didnt learn anything, and nobody liked it. I usually like field trips but I felt like just losing it when she talked. I am not influenced by the weather, how I get treated at home, etc. Now I know I wont pass drivers Ed, though! Thanks, Mama Blue for your help and compassion, and I usually like field trips. So many fake reviews, and this costs us 11$. Didnt feed us for six hours.thank you for reading, and avoid this place at all costs. You will wish you had listened to me if you do! Mama Blue, STOP YELLING. All of the kids hate you!! EDIT: She also said we should be lawyers. Im sorry if you have to go. I was STARVING for 6 hours!! She also didnt let us ask questions or use the bathroom. I felt like I was a prisoner!! Ugh.. o~o

Dont go on a field trip here. My little brother is in third grade and he went on a field trip here. Hes reliable and smart for someone his age, so I can trust what he told me. He said that the woman there yelled at the kids for almost the whole time they were there, (about 2 hours) said they werent "good citizens" if they didnt know how many kids their lunch lady had and if they didnt make their own food at home (these are 8 and 9 year olds). She discouraged them from following their dreams which is honestly a TERRIBLE thing to say to a kid. You should not tell a child that their dreams are impossible and they should be a lawyer instead. She also said they shouldnt yawn in public. Among other things. She also yelled at the kids multiple times because they raised their hands to ask questions. Field trips are meant to be learning environments. Kids are SUPPOSED to be curious and they are MEANT to ask questions. And telling a kid off for something that is positive and normal and that they should be doing is really just a horrible thing to do. People that treat kids this way should be ashamed of themselves. I went on a couple of field trips here when I was younger and even though I love history, I never enjoyed it. I dont remember much from my own experience, just that I didnt enjoy it.

Most Terrible field trip of my life I am in the same class as a lot of people in this list they all rated it terribly btw. I would rater get sick on my stomach and cut my little toe off than go here again Granny Blue and Blue Mama are psychopaths I call this place the Dream Crusher because they told us that we had to be lawyers, Called us SLAVES, Saying we fail drivers ed, told us we were a disgrace to society, and THEN asked the teachers if they were hard enough and asked them if they could spank us I mean WHAT? btw I "Love making those high quality paper bags". when I left I felt like I had been slapped by a buttcheek on a stick. THey also enjoyed kicking kids out of the 1 play we did and booing when we were finished. These old ladies need to understand it is no longer 1570 (When they were born). Im NOT calling this weird phycopathic old lady Mama Blue. Get a life and dont call little black 8 year olds slaves rude ass.

Terrible!!!!!!!!!!!! I went when I was in fourth grade and it was horrible! Their main focus is the teachers and yelling at the children about how we should keep a journal and if we didnt we were stupid. And Im sorry but when Granny Blue has to say to the teachers in the middle of a 40 minute lecture should I be harder on them we have a problem. Honestly I dont blame the teachers for wanting a day without having to worry about kids and putting them in the care of the workers there but come on now. The kids are being yelled ,and while the kids preform a stupid play that not even all the kids get to be in. Also as a fourth grader they have short attention spans and its like she just kept talking and kept talking and if you moved she would point you out and yell at you. So thats as much as Ill say but my little sister was supposed to go and I demanded that she would not go. I wouldnt even pay them a penny to go.

If I could I would rate it 0 stars.I had a similar problem as a few other people. An old lady yelling at us and telling us we shouldnt follow our dreams and be lawyers instead of being a game creator ,football player, etc. I was in 4th grade at the time of the field trip. Im in fifth grade now. The field trip was in late september or early november and they told us to take off our jackets inside (Which i was fine with because it was warm inside) and proceeded to bring my group outside ( Which stunk)All my classmates thought it was bad AND they had the nerve to call us the worst school they have ever had. The teachers even said some of us wouldnt go to our next field trip and the heritage theater was fine. Quick Edit: They threatened we would get in trouble if we told our parents.

Not sure why all the negative reviews about an "old lady yelling" a lot. My stepson went recently for a second grade field trip and he loved it. He couldnt stop talking about how cool the place was. In fact, I only Googled the place because he brought it up again this morning. When I saw the reviews and asked him if there was a mean old lady yelling at him, he seemed genuinely confused and said, "No, there was just the nice lady that ran the place."
